New York vs Miami Prediction: the Heat Should End the Series

Prediction for the NBA New York Knicks vs Miami Heat match which will take place on May 11th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

New York Knicks

The series with Miami shows New York's limitations on offense. In Games 3 and 4 in Florida, Tom Thibodeau's team scored only 86 and 101 points. Clearly, with an offense like that and Jimmy Butler on the lineup, the Knicks can hardly hope to make much of a run against the Heat in any playoff game. New York somehow doesn't have the resources to step up their match on the opposite end of the floor. It wouldn't be a surprise if, in Game 5, we see the first Eastern Conference finalist.

Miami Heat

Not all time during Game 4, but at the peak moments, the Heat was moving ideally on offense without giving their opponents any chance to rebound on defense. When Miami failed to make a shot, Erik Spoelstra's squad improved in front of the basket. So the Heat's win, bringing the series to 3-1, looked well-deserved. As for Miami in Game 4, Jimmy Butler not only scored 27 points but also had ten assists. Bam Adebayo was outstanding in the paint with 23 points and 13 rebounds.

Expert Betting Tips

The only game Miami lost in the NY series was when Jimmy Butler didn't play. If he participates in Game 5, and there is no reason to believe he won't, the Heat has an excellent chance to end the series. Milwaukee Bucks still need to find a way to stop Butler in the first round. New York's success is no better. Tom Thibodeau's team could clinch a win in the upcoming game by being more efficient on offense, but it hasn't improved much from their previous games. We're betting on Miami to win a low-scoring game.
